Just like to publicly thank scout575 for organising the recent meet up in West London.
It was the first one I and my wife (Bubble) have been to.
We found it both therapeutic and entertaining, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.It was nice to hear others stories and experiences. The atmosphere was very informal and welcoming.
We wont guarantee that we will go to every meet up but we certainly will go again in the near future. I thought I would take this opportunity to promote this meet up. I'm sure there are many in the London area (and beyond) that would like to meet others that used to be JW's.
Scout575 is the organizer so I don't want to step on his toes, all I'm saying is that I enjoyed it and can reccommend it to others - the more the merrier!
Post to Scout575 for more details.

Does your personal vehicle reflect your personality?
by Gregor inthere is a clever volkswagen tv ad currently running in the u s that depicts various types of people driving cars that reflect their personality, like older males driving sleek sports cars to compensate for their "shortcomings" or a younger man driving an expensive european sedan as he pronounces with a bullhorn "because my father never hugged me!
or another who says "because i make more money than you!
have any of you ever gotten your self image tangled up with a vehicle?

I am restricted by my company as to what car i can have as i get a company car.
I always try to get the best car possible as it has to last me 3 whole years until I get a shiny new one.
My current car is a BMW 3 series (or 'expensive European sedan') as the Yanks call it!
I like to drive a quality car, with upmarket interior and good dynamics - and yes maybe it does betray my personality.
I was in the US recently and I bought a few car mags as I am a car 'nut'.
I was amazed at how far behind America is compared to the European offerings from the likes of Mercedes or BMW etc. -

Say something horrible.............but true about your kids ..............
by vitty inalthough, the complaints may be valid and sad.
many posters here have vented about their wicked parents.. i think its time we parents have a post dedicated to saying something horrid about our kids.
it maybe something you have wanted to say about them that was in the past or happening now.

I have three kids of my own, all in their late teens.
One didn't do too well at school, does have a job now but not a very good one.
My middle child is doing quite well at college and very well in his part time job - he likes the money it brings. He saves some of it, goes out for nice meals with some of it and he gambles and drinks the rest!
My daughter is doing fine at school, in fact she is doing her final exams right now.
The only thing I dislike is that all three ague big time with their mother (my ex-wife) but are unwilling to stand up to her silly demands - she doesn't even want them to come round my house or go away on holiday with me - we got divarced years ago!
Ah well, life's full of ups and downs. -

When I was a Jdub I thought the 'Quick Builds' (now 'Safe Builds') were really impressive and showed everyone that we had Jehovahs blessing.
I wished that I was good in construction so that I could help out - but alas I couldn't even put a shelf up, let alone straight!
But I did manage to get on the QuickBuild team - as the official photographer!
Shame I haven't got the photo's now or I'd post them.
The sad thing is that I thought I had a really important job! -

Sorry, was it a SONG contest?
I don' think the country with the best songwriters or musicians won did they?
But warm congratulations to Finland - it really is EuroVISION isn't it?
Not exactly attractive but certainly different - well done! -

Absolutely no idea as to how you can call Israel European.
Europe thinks it's a superpower now doesn't it?
I am trying to work out whether it is the King of the North (Finland etc?) or the King of the South (Spain, Malta etc?). -

As I said before what's happened to the good old days - bring back Abba!!! -

Did you see the size of the Maltese male singers eyebrows?????
About the only one who is not gay I presume? Otherwise he would have shaped them better!
Breaking news as I write - Malta have got a point!!!!
Hoorah.
